Today, Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice John Walsh dismissed the misdemeanor contempt of court charge against femcee Foxy Brown, after prosecutors revealed that her accuser Arlene Raymond refused to testify in the case of allegedly being “mooned” last July after having a restraining order against Brown. Ok, Foxy. Now that we’ve got this issue behind us, no more mooning, no missing court dates, no throwing fits and/or Blackberries. Just some good ol’ fashioned Ill Na Na ish! Please!! Details after the jump.
(NYP) – “She wanted this matter behind her. She wanted to drop the charges,” Assistant DA Robert Isdith said before asking the judge to drop the charges against the rapper.
Brown had pleaded not guilty to the charge.
Outside the courthouse, Brown’s lawyer Salvatore Strazzullo said he was prepared to use the “underwear defense” had the case gone to trial.
“On the day [of the alleged mooning incident], she was not wearing any underwear,” Strazzullo said.
Raymond had said that Brown removed her panties when she mooned her.
Brown, who was wearing a silver dress, heels and a Channel bag, said her accuser was simply jealous of her.
“It’s a scary thing when someone want to be you and have your life,” she said.
Asked if she was wearing any panties to today’s hearing, Brown grinned, “To court? No comment.”
Brown had been issued the order of protection after pleading guilty in 2008 to menacing Raymond with her cellphone.
The two had been fighting after Brown blasted her car radio outside their Prospect Heights building.
Last year, Brown had been indicted on the misdemeanor charge, but a grand jury declined to indict her on three other misdemeanor and two felony counts.
Strazzullo said he planned to bring a malicious prosecution case against the Brooklyn DA.
“It was a waste of taxpayer resources,” he said.
